  "account": "A class-action lawsuit has been filed against Logitech, alleging that the company withholds $61 million in tariff refunds received from the U.S. government. According to the lawsuit, Logitech increased the prices of over half its product line by up to 25% in April 2025, after President Trump's illegal tariffs were overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. The complaint states that Logitech has not returned any of the refunds to its customers who bought its products at inflated prices, unlike some other companies that have begun refunding consumers. It further alleges that Logitech extracted an estimated $73 million to $97 million from consumers in fiscal year 2026 alone through tariff-justified price increases, totaling at least $75 million to $100 million.",
  "summary": "Consumers who bought products from Logitech after it increased its prices due to tariffs still haven't received their refunds, even after the U.S. government returned $61 million to the company. Now they're suing for their refunds, saying that 'Company extracted approximately $73 million to $97 million from consumers.'",
